Man dumps gun, ammo while escaping Police

The Police are hunting for a man who dropped a firearm and ammunition while evading the lawmen at Crane Village, West Coast Demerara (WCD), on Sunday.
Based on reports received, Police acting on information received went to a popular sports bar at Crane Road, West Coast Demerara, where they observed a male of mixed-race standing in front of the premises with a handgun in his right hand.
As the ranks approached him, the suspect reportedly scaled a fence and ran in an eastern direction.

The ranks reportedly gave chase, but the man had already made good his escape. However, a search was carried out in the area in which the suspect was seen running and a pink cap that the man was wearing was retrieved.
Upon opening the hat, Police unearthed a .38 firearm with its serial number removed. The firearm at the time of the discovery contained three rounds of .38 ammunition.
The ranks took possession of the firearm and returned to the Leonora Police Station where both the firearm and ammunition were lodged as evidence.
